Looking To Redesign WPTavern.com

[Jeffro]

I'm open to any and all concepts/mockups to stir up ideas. I have an idea as to what I want in terms of dimensions and such. perhaps I should list them off in this thread for anyone else wanting to do a mockup

I like what you started there Jeff. A suggestion would be to add a featured post area on the homepage ... either with a Slider or thumbnails (wpcandy view)..

I think the preview looks promising for sure. I'd say go with and develop it and see what happens. It shows good separation of content and I think it would definitely improve the display quite a bit.

I'm going to try and get in touch with the man that put this together and see what we can accomplish in making this a reality.

With all due respect Jeff, <----- This is just to cover my bluntness that I am about to unleash.

It looks like a skunk.

When I think of a skunk I think of disgusting urine filled smell.
When I see wpTAVERN, I think of a well....get ready for it....TAVERN.

Oh yeah, convert to bbpress or phpbb :-).

If you get to bbpress, you can intergrate the blog part and the forum part too.

That's interesting because it's not that much different than what I'm using now. But thanks for the critique :)

I don't believe there is a conversion script available for vBulletin at the moment IIRC and I wouldn't switch to phpBB. Personally, phpBB has had more issues in the past that I'd care to comment on.
